Aladdin's Lamp

The most interesting thing I find about the story of Aladdin’s lamp is that all of the wishes are humanistic in nature. It’s about gold or title or fame. These are not only very selfish, but also short-sighted. They are trying to fix problems that are a byproduct of a broken world. Why not fix the world, then you wouldn’t have problems like poverty or inequality? Why not wish to remove sin and the devil from the world and bring it back into alignment with God’s original plan forever? We have the benefit of hindsight, so why not use it to fix the point where it all went wrong?
